With patients’ demands seeking elective aesthetic treatment growing, dentistry & more specifically aesthetic dentistry has
developed a lot in the last decade. One of the major aspects of this field is porcelain laminate veneers (PLV). Thanks to
the latest developments in the bonding systems & types of ceramics available nowadays, it is now possible to offer our patients
the best aesthetic result with minimal compromise to the dental tissues. In order to achieve that, a precise workflow & a
specific set of steps should be followed in such an approach with minimally invasive notions, starting with dental photography,
digital smile design, mock-ups & deep cuts to temporization techniques as well as respecting the recommended cementation
protocols. This presentation will focus on the workflow, clinical steps & protocol followed in the fabrication of porcelain
laminate veneers.
